The Manica Post understands that Prince Stefano (30) of
Mandeya Village had just paid a bride price of US$345 for 21-year-old Chiedza
Mudzedze who is said to be a virgin.
“I paid US$345 as bride price. That is what had been
communicated to me. However, when we went for the bride price paying ceremony,
they demanded US$800, which I did not have. They said they would only give me
my wife after paying the full amount, but these were only delaying tactics.
They did not want me to marry Chiedza because they had found out that I have a
nine-year-old-son,” he said.
Chiedza said she is worth more than US$345 as she is a
virgin. “I am a virgin and where in this world have you heard of a virgin being
married for that lousy amount? I am still young, I am only 21 and will
eventually find someone worthy of me, someone who has never been with another
woman.
